And Paul Newman is very well aware of this and am pretty confindent that he has a contingency plan all set - Mario Andretti's name comes to mind here.

Although I've said "I don't care", ofcourse I do, otherwise why would I write that post, what I mean is that it won't be a huge loss nor hurt to CCWS - Paul Newman is fully capable of carrying this team through (I think).

Hmmm, you really think there will be a 2005 season for OWRS?

Well, if you lose Hass, it will be another crippling blow, in a string of many. Remember, your placing all of your faith on a 79 year old man(God Bless him!)Paul Newman. He could just call it quits at anytime, and as for Mario stepping in, I doubt it. Hasn't he always said he's not big on the business side of racing?
